Do you reckon this will solve my problem? As the symptoms are similar to my problem (sorta :S)

Anyone know where it would be located in a 1989 Honda Accord Si? Or any Accords for a start?

So all you have to do is re-solder all the points and then plug it back in?

Thanks, Chris

you have nothing to loose by trying it.

and yes, the fist post in the thread is all about resoldering all the contact and puting it back, thats all it is.

hardest part is removing it from the car.

on an 1989 it should be under the drives side dash. some older accords had it behind the glove box.

LOL how the hell do i get behind the glove box? It was hard enough changing the glove box light, let alone removing the whole glove box itself. So the relay is not in the engine? Under the driver side dash? Where is that? You mean under the speedo? Do you access it from engine bay or interior?

Sorry i am a total newb, got no idea where anything is.

OH btw thanks for posting the DIY, will definitely try it.

the glovebox is the easiest thing ever to remove. two bolts with an 8mm socket and undo both bottom hindges.

and yes under the drivers dash means above the pedals near the fues box.

the pgmfi relay is never in the engine bay

does anybody know where to locate the main relay on a da3 teg?

[beeza]

Is this the same fuse you would remove to prevent someone from stealing your car? Apart from your ECU fuse.

[ECU-MAN]

the main pgmfi relay is not a fues.

but yes if its not there the car wont start
